This article reviews in-vitro and cell-free methods for assessing the efficacy of herbal ingredients in cosmetic formulations for skin health and hair growth, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of androgen therapy and neurosteroids in cerebrovascular health, highlighting the potential risks and benefits and the importance of pharmacogenetic testing, but reports no new experimental results.

This review examines experimental studies on the synergistic use of platelet-rich plasma and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells for wound healing in animal models, without reporting new clinical outcomes.

This review summarizes the association between 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and depression, discussing potential mechanisms such as neuroactive steroid alterations and neuroinflammation, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found no significant increase in depression risk associated with taking five-alpha reductase inhibitors for benign prostatic hyperplasia or alopecia, although further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

This review discusses various types of stem cells used in regenerative medicine, including adult stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and evaluates them based on their embryonic tissue origins to explore new therapeutic approaches.

Inhibiting PGD2 and using dermal papilla cells may improve skin and hair regeneration.

This article highlights that early and high-dose corticosteroid therapy, along with immunosuppressive agents, is crucial for managing Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease, and emerging biological therapies may benefit refractory cases.

This study identified novel isoforms of the PADI2 and PADI3 proteins, showing that PADI2β inhibits oligodendrocyte differentiation, possibly by opposing the effect of canonical PADI2, while PADI3β modulates the activity of PADI3α, suggesting new regulatory mechanisms of citrullination in tissue development.

In this study, researchers evaluated hair follicle transplantation techniques and reported that challenges such as limited follicle supply and low follicle survival rates often limit patient satisfaction, but advances in regenerative medicine may offer promising new solutions.

In this study, researchers found that retinoic acid is crucial for hair follicle stem cell function and tissue regeneration by resolving lineage plasticity, with potential therapeutic implications for hair growth, wound healing, and cancer.

This study found that a chitosan-based hydrogel containing silver nanoparticles and ibuprofen demonstrated strong antibacterial activity and accelerated wound healing in vivo, suggesting its potential use in wound dressings.

This cohort study found no overall increased risk of suicidal behaviors with finasteride versus dutasteride in men aged 50 and older, but suggested potential risk for those with a history of mood disorders.

This study found that using a microwell array device to expand hair follicle stem cells in Matrigel significantly increased cell numbers and enhanced hair regeneration in mice.

This review discusses the roles of peripheral nerves in stem cell and immune responses within the skin and hematopoietic system, emphasizing their potential in developing new therapies; it reports no new experimental results.

This medical case report describes a 69-year-old man's diagnosis and management of ANCA-associated vasculitis leading to rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, ultimately treated with glucocorticoids and rituximab.

This study found that dutasteride was more effective than finasteride in reducing total prostate volume and PSA levels and improving symptoms in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia.

In this study, men with previous finasteride use reported more severe sexual and psychological symptoms with greater cumulative exposure and older age, highlighting a need for further research on risk factors and long-term impacts.

This paper reports insights from an Expert Panel convened by the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer on managing immune-related adverse events (irAEs) following immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy, highlighting surveillance gaps and the need for a comprehensive irAE registry to improve post-treatment care for cancer survivors.

This study found that 3-hydroxypropionic acid improved the function of hair follicle cells under oxidative stress, suggesting potential as a treatment for stress-related hair loss.

This review summarizes research on scar formation and inhibition mechanisms, discussing emerging therapies like gene therapy and stem cell treatments, but notes ongoing challenges for clinical application, including treatment personalization and outcome sustainability.

This study reports that a novel eyelash transplantation method using chalazion forceps effectively thickens and enhances eyelashes by precisely placing transplanted hairs in a narrow recipient area, with approximately 85-92% of transplanted lashes expected to grow within 12 months.

This review explores the role of FGF signaling in hair follicle development and highlights its potential as a new therapeutic target for hair loss, which could surpass existing treatments in terms of efficacy and safety.

This review explores the mechanisms, current products, challenges, and innovative approaches related to cosmetics for hair loss prevention and growth promotion, emphasizing the need for multidisciplinary cooperation to enhance product development and market success.

This review highlights the limitations of existing hair loss treatments like minoxidil and finasteride and suggests that future therapies may benefit from focusing on antibody and cell-based treatments, which offer targeted and potentially transformative options for managing hair loss disorders.

In this case report, a 56-year-old Black man experienced patchy scalp hair loss which began four months after his second COVID-19 vaccination, also considering his medical history of hypertension and type 2 diabetes.

In this retrospective cohort study, researchers found no significant difference between finasteride and dutasteride in terms of reducing prostate volume or adverse effects among patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, although both drugs improved lower urinary tract symptoms over one year by reducing prostate volume.

This review examines how skin organoids, derived from stem cells, are constructed to simulate skin functions and are pivotal in wound healing and regeneration, highlighting their promising roles in both research and therapeutic applications.
